If you haven’t heard about the film, then there’s a good chance you may not know much about forced organ harvesting in China which involves the communist state killing innocent people.

Hard to Believe was first released in 2015, the same year that Beijing claimed that all organs in China for transplants come from voluntary deceased donors.
Researchers have since found that Beijing fudges its figures regarding voluntary deceased donors while other researchers have found that transplant volumes are much larger than the state is admitting.
But either way, killing people for their organs sounds like a horror movie and as the title infers: It’s ‘hard to believe’. The crux of the 56-minute long film looks at why the issue hasn’t gained the attention that it should.
Swoop Films, who made Hard to Believe, say that information in their film was used as evidence in the China Tribunal recently held in London which was led by former international war crimes prosecutor Sir Geoffrey Nice QC.
The tribunal was established to investigate allegations of forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience in China.
“The tribunal’s members are certain — unanimously, and sure beyond reasonable doubt — that in China forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience has been practiced for a substantial period of time involving a very substantial number of victims,” the tribunal found in part of its judgment.
The main prisoners of conscience who are victims of forced organ harvesting are adherents of the Falun Gong meditation practice who have been persecuted in China since 1999. See a short video report on the China Tribunal below.
